    Another Look at the D&D Essentials Kit

    If you backed Odyssey of the Dragonlords, or followed the comments, you would have noticed that that kickstarter is getting people to play D&D who have never played before. I recommended LMoP to them as a way to learn how to play and DM while waiting for that kickstarter to fulfill. So, I...

    D&D 5E (2014) Ghosts of Saltmarsh: A Review

    I haven't read the actual module yet. But, was hoping it could turn into a mission of assisting/rescuing the lizardfolk. Maybe they are under siege from actual bad guys when the characters arrive or shortly thereafter? If there is some diplomacy, that is fine. But, if the entire module is...

    D&D 5E (2014) Ghosts of Saltmarsh: A Review

    I had been looking forward to running this for my kids... until I read about Dunwater. Two of my kids get bored pretty quickly with diplomacy type scenarios. If I run this, I'll have to figure out a way to change that part. I have the original Sinister Secret at Saltmarsh, but had never read...

    Eye of the Beholder: D&D Art Documentary Now Playing

    I backed this as well. I have watched it in its entirety 3 times and have watched bits and pieces in addition to that. They did a great job with this. Glad I backed it.

    D&D 5E (2014) Heroes of Baldur's Gate is a D&D Adventure From Bioware's Baldur's Gate Designer

    I have played quite a few CRPGs over the years... Wizardry was the first computer game I ever owned. Then probably Ultima... much later it was Eye of the Beholder, Icewin Dale and Neverwinter Nights. There are so many more (Bard's Tale, Wasteland... etc)... but I never played Baldur's Gate. I...

    Ghosts of Saltmarsh Adventure Summaries

    Thanks for the summary. I pre-ordered this as soon as it was available. Looking forward to it. But, the big question... do the maps have north at the top of the page? Kidding! I don't care.

    Sneak Peek At Ghosts of Saltmarsh Maps

    I miss THAC0 and the descending AC. I also miss unbalanced classes. I miss how fighters and clerics started out strong. Magic Users struggled at low levels, but eventually became the most powerful class. Each class had more purpose as well. "Ok, we need 2 fighter types, 2 clerics, a thief...

    Starfinder Unboxing The Starfinder Beginner Box

    If you find any good adventures for this, post about them. I didn't care enough for the Paizo adventures to run them. If I find a good adventure, then I will get my group to try Star Finder.

    There's An Official ALIEN RPG Coming!

    I have similar concerns. I only saw Alien and Prometheus, and liked both, but worry that this game won't have enough diversity in terms of enemies and scenarios.

    RPG Crowdfunding News - Critical Core, The Grande Temple of Jing, Fellowship, Party Backstory Genera

    There are so many great kickstarters at the moment. I backed Odyssey of the Dragonlords... a Greek mythology based 5e adventure from the lead designer of Baldur's Gates I & II and KOTOR. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/arcanumworlds/odyssey-of-the-dragonlords-5th-edition-adventure-b I...
